New Jersey legal recreational cannabis sales finally started. Now, the question is: Who will celebrate more? Consumers or marijuana operators?
It looks like it’s a tie, considering that it has been some 17 months and multiple setbacks since New Jerseyans decided to legalize adult-use cannabis in a ballot measure. Just recently, the Cannabis Regulatory Commission approved 34 conditional licenses and agreed that seven of the state's 10 medical cannabis companies can begin sales.
